Public bug reported: I upgraded from Ubuntu 24.04 to 24.10 when the latter came out.
After booting up and logging in, any GNOME application (Terminal, Console, File Manager, Settings) takes a really long time to start, up to 30 seconds or so. Non-GNOME applications start normally, i.e. pretty much instantly (I tried Thunderbird and Brave Browser). I was able to reproduce the issue with a brand new test user (i.e. no accumulated config or cache). If I don't reboot then once GNOME apps "unfreeze", subsequent starts are fast. My config: - Intel Core i7 12700 - NVIDIA 4080 with proprietary drivers - Dual monitors 27" 4K at 150% scaling - X11 session (some apps I use don't support Wayland yet) - Plenty of storage on fast NVMEs - Wired Ethernet connection 1 Gbit/s ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.10 Package: gnome-terminal 3.54.0-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.11.0-8.8-generic 6.11.0 Uname: Linux 6.11.0-8-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.30.0-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Fri Oct 18 08:22:27 2024 InstallationDate: Installed on 2024-07-03 (107 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Release amd64 (20240424) ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash TERM=xterm-256color XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> SourcePackage: gnome-terminal UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oracular on 2024-10-12 (6 days ago) ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug oracular -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2084919 Title: GNOME terminal and other GNOME apps take a really long time to start since upgrade to 24.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/2084919/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
